How’s this for an awkward moment, an official opening from nightmares when plans quite literally fell through
As suited officials were to cut the ribbon to inaugurate a bridge in the Democratic Republic of Congo… the worst happened.
The bridge collapsed causing chaos and outrage
Congo officials gathered to formally open the footbridge, built to help residents cross a river during the wet months
Ironic, because the previous makeshift bridge would frequently break.
However, as the ribbon was ready to be cut with scissors – it collapsed
African politicians have a reputation for throwing some of the most bizarre opening ceremonies, that seem to go viral in videos like this.
